Haddam, Connecticut: The Haddam Historical Society will host a tour of the historic Haddam Jail cellblock on October 19 and October 26 from 1 pm to 4 pm.  Visitors will meet some the famous and not so well-known historic prisoners who were incarcerated in the Haddam Jail in the 19th and 20th century. Local actors will portray real characters who were jailed for various crimes including forgery, bigamy and poisoning. Come and hear their stories, learn their fates.

This year we are partnering with the newly established local theater group, Blue Fire Stage Company. Learn more about Blue Fire Stage Company on their Facebook page.
